The miltek exhaust is a new system that just hit the market, the fitment was excellent, but the first prototype system I installed had fixed tips, which were....well....off.

The 987 exhaust is completely different from the 986 exhaust (fabspeed uses dansk exhaust for the 986).

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

I just had a Fabspeed exhaust installed on my 987and it sounds great!
Sound is deep and throaty, and when down shifting you can hear a nice rumble.
My concern was like many does it hang to low and how would it look and sound.
The quality of the product looks very well made and the welds are some of the best I have seen. Overall very glad with the product also make sure you get the tips as the entire rear look is awesome.
Don the owner from Precision Motion in Riverside, CA [phone removed]) did the install, his guys do good clean work.
The total cost was roughly $2045 plus tax.
Fabspeed Maxflow Exhaust = 1350
Tips for exhaust = 395
Labor = 300
I have seen some group buys that might be a little cheaper or you can order it direct from
www.fabspeed.com
.
Will try to post pictures tomorrow.
A few years ago I used to live right off Kirk Road in St Charles, IL.
Don at the shop that did the install said that Fabspeed products are great quality and fit. He also deals much with Dansk, Tubi, etc...
It sure seems like a great product made directly from Fabspeed in comparison to some others I had on my Corvette.
This would be a great time to get a response from the owner of Fabspeed on his product.

During the research on Dansk the only exhaust they show available for a 987 05 is nothing like the Fabspeed Maxflow Exhaust.
If you can get a Fabspeed cheaper you should buy it but I think the only way would be a group buy or a special sale. Good Luck!
Don't get wrong Dansk is high quality and they make the OEM muffles for Porsche. I don't know about the 987, but the fabspeed muffler for the 986 is actually the dansk sport muffler marked up a couple hundo. Maybe Joe could shed some light on this?

Any word back from Joe?
The 987 exhaust is completely different from the 986 exhaust (fabspeed uses dansk exhaust for the 986). The 987 exhaust is the same as the Cayman exhaust and is made by fabspeed. I have installed miltek and fabspeed, and while both sound awesome, the fabspeed system fits like socks on a rooster. On the 987 it took 3 of us to get it lined up correctly. Once it is in place though, it is a very good system and sounds great. The miltek exhaust is a new system that just hit the market, the fitment was excellent, but the first prototype system I installed had fixed tips, which were....well....off. Sort of looked like the car had walleye vision, lol. They have since gone to adjustable tips to take care of that from what I have heard. I would highly recommend either system.
